30		medium	On the way to the Chandeleurs.
29		medium	Deer Island sunset.
28		medium	A view of the Ocean Springs outer harbor.  Shot from the bridge, hand held at one second, with the camera resting on a bridge rail pillar.

26		medium	Ever wonder about the origin of  the expression "Yankee dimes?"
25		medium	This fellow appeared in Anne and David's back yard in Ocean Springs, just three weeks after their new ornamental pond was filled.  David, a biologist, identified it as a bronze frog.  The reflections from the strobe mask the color somewhat; it actually looks very much like bronze statuary.
24		medium	Chris Stebley's mural at the Marine Mart on the Ocean Springs harbor.  It's a view of Ocean Springs from the sky over Deer Island.  The details are great; have a look on the large image.
23		medium	Focused on the reflection on the surface of the garden pond.
22		medium	What you see has a lot to do with how you look.   Focused on the suface of the garden pond.
21		medium	My flock of R.A. Miller folk art chickens. R. A. is eighty-something years old and lives in Rabbittown, Georgia.
20		medium	I was trying to shoot a photo of something else and this fellow kept putting himself in the way. The shadows of his wings look like an early 50s cartoon version of a jet fighter.
19		medium	The afternoon sun on the cooling vents at the back fo the computer monitor.  If nothing else, it's a good example of shallow depth of field.
18		medium	The essence of the big blue beast that followed me home today.   It's a Ford van, for towing the F-27 and hauling azaleas.
17		medium	Think less about what it is and more about the colors.   Purples from yesterday's poke berries on the grey deck railing, placed by a robin.   The texture in the railing is courtesy of yellowjackets and wasps.  They chew away the softer fibers for their nests, leaving the hard ridges.
16		medium	One of the noisy resident wrens dropped a feather onto the duckweed in the garden pond.  It's tiny; smaller than the nail on your little finger.  A whisper of mass, supported by the duckweed, supported, in turn, by the surface tension on the water.
15		medium	Low angle view through a flower vase left on the picnic table.   The bright rim reminds me of a certain kind of jellyfish seen in bright sun over very deep water.

1		medium	Detail from last week's jambalaya/paella.  The shrimp were sweet and full of sea-flavor.
